  1. There are 2 cinnamons listed so I used the 1 teaspoon. I used wholemeal flour and choc chips (which sank!) instead of walnuts as my son doesn't like them. I didn't add the white chocolate on top. I made 2 loaf cakes which took 45 min. This cake was beautifully moist and delicately flavoured. So good my son ate 4 slices. Will definitely make it again.
